The night before the attacks on Paris, I was awoken by my child at 4am who was feeling sick. As I was in the kitchen getting medicine, I looked out at the sky, the night was still, the sky dark, no clouds, and stars just sparkled back at me. It was beautiful.

I thought to myself then, when will everyone realise, we share the same sky, we live on the same planet, nobody has the right to say this is my country, this is my land, and to kill for their own cause. Stop the violence and live as one.
